@SurajRao They've posted 15 well-written, very well-formatted answers in the past 40 minutes. According to a comment on MSO's announcement post, CGPT likes writing lists, which two of their answers contain.
A comment beneath one of their answers points out things in their answer that are just wrong; the user who posted that comment has top scores in the [kotlin] tag.
 
yeah.. they belted out so many answers without asking for even one clarification comment (as far as I can see).. Thats amazing if they actually did that
 
A user who hasn't been for over 6 years and then posts over a dozen seemingly excellent posts in < 1 hour is slightly suspicious. I don't know enough to give a definite answer and throw the hammer down
Speaking of CGPT, I should've put my reasons into a numbered list

@SurajRao Yes, those were ChatGPT. However:
Charcoal HQ isn't the best place to ask about ChatGPT. The AI Domination room is a good place to welcome our new AI overlords.

@Makyen Thanks. I've requested access; proper moderation never gets boring on SO
or does it.
 
Thanks
 
Just wait, there's more!

SmokeDetector should now be scanning Staging Ground questions. Let me know if you think it's not doing so.

^ I mean something you feel SD would have caught if it wasn't in Staging Ground. For just things that would need to be manually reported, !!/report, !!/scan, and !!/allspam/!!/reportuser should all be working.
 
Woo!
 
10:00 PM
Unfortunately, I wasn't aware that they were changing URL schemes, so !!/report and !!/scan won't be working, yet.
sigh Maybe they said they were going to do that and I just missed it, but I really don't recall that being mentioned.
